WATERSTONE'S BRIGHTON

Yesterday I was in Brighton! I had kindly been invited to the Tiggles Children's Group at Waterstone's bookshop in the city to talk about what I do, read some stories and make  some little picture books with a small group of kids. It was the first time I'd ever done such a thing and I really did enjoy it! So thank you Lauren and also Martha for having me yesterday!
Here are a couple of photos!
Honestly there were kids there! It wasn't just lonesome old me!

BOSCOMBE VINTAGE MARKET

'Come 'n' get cha lovely gourds! Greeetings cards! The best money can buy!'

That's right folks I had my first market trading experience this weekend! And, dare I say, it was great.
It was at Boscombe Vintage Market, just down the road from me, down here in sunny Dorset.
It's more that vintage wares and thrift store finds though. There were cakes, original prints, upholstery, handmade jewellery, live music etc. 
I meet some lovely people and sold a few bit and bobs, with the help of my lovely assistant/girlfriend Amy, and I plan to go back for more next month, as the market has become a monthly event on the local calender!
